Really small things are really good at surviving anything involving gravity.
But it’s not a 0-75 acceleration either. They’d be sucked out and fine a second later. The danger would be getting pulled around the car due to its aerodynamics, putting it directly in front of the next windshield in traffic.
The excuse for places that don’t have it is often:
If voters could recall politicians, they’d recall politicians!
Which is enough when politicians are the only ones who can change it.
, I don’t think it can hurt any more than a calculator hurts your ability to do math.
Because using AI atrophies the part of your brain that handles critical thinking…
The more you use it, the less you notice how you can’t do things without it.
If AI worked, that would be normal. The problem is it’s just good at conning people into believing it.
That’s why you can’t realize if it ever takes off and people start using it, they’re going to make it shittier and more expensive.
But again, the people already relying on AI have lost the critical thinking to see that coming. It’s like a bus driver closing their eyes because a bridge is closed. The bridge is still closed, they didn’t solve any problems. They just don’t see it coming now.
What you’re doing is asking all the passengers why they’re still screaming if all they need to do is close their eyes…
It’s burning the environment down, destroying the shambles of the global economy, and being constantly shoved down everyone’s throats even though it’s only impressive to people who don’t understand it
It’s worse…
People are saying it’s AI slop filter, and he won’t shut the fuck up that the slop isn’t a filter, it’s a main ingredient.
When enabled it fundamentally changes how it works.
Developers will be stuck with the default version we’ve seen, or have to devote a shit ton of money to do twice the work for the people who use this, and they won’t see the other version.
Like, this shit is going to get worse and worse the more people understand it.
Not really,
Nvidia just calls everything DLSS…
Like, it’s basically an anthology label at this point. If they think it’s a good idea, they call.it DLSS #
For example DLSS 4 was frame generation, nothing to do with super sampling.
Yeah, it’s a thing.
Was always a gimmicky part of speaker software back in the day.
Like, a page in setting was a picture of a generic room and you can drag and drop an icon for the picture to change how 3d sound was displayed.
So you could likely find something like that and co-opt it for headphones.
Search for something like “3d audio setup” or “positioning software”.
That being said, this isn’t a problem with how you’re processing sound. It’s more likely an inner ear thing, but it’s impossible to say if it’s a “problem” or just weird variation. So anything you do with the headphones is just going to compensate for it, not actually solve it.
It’s probably also weird watching TV or a screen from an angle either, fixing the inner ear thing would likely solve a lot of stuff for you, especially if you consider yourself clumsy
OP gave some surface level details that are pretty much all existing tropes…
If someone read it and said they didn’t like it, the issue probably wasn’t any of the things OP said.
But writing is a skill, you don’t start out good at it, you get good by doing it a lot. Every author’s first stories suck
And it would be 100% funnier too, and still on brand for Bullock to say he can’t speak the language he’s currently speaking.
The reality is that gas station profit margins on fuel are famously thin. After accounting for the wholesale cost of gasoline, taxes, and credit card processing fees (which can be a significant percentage of the transaction), the net profit on a gallon of gas can be just a few cents. This makes relying on fuel sales alone a risky proposition. The market is volatile, and a small swing in wholesale prices can wipe out your already slim margins.

They already don’t make money off gas
Their profits are the stuff in the store, the excuse people have for overpaying is that they’re already there.
We’ll see a lot close, and the ones that remain grow to be basic conscience stores.
They’ll still have the gas pumps, because it’s expensive to remove them. But new builds will likely just be parking lots instead of pumps.
The old stations would be what people have to rely on.
As such the ones on the outskirts would be the ones that close first.
Last gas stations will be in downtown areas where getting rid of 60 year old pumps wouldn’t gain anymore parking than people parking at the pumps.
Try “random start” mods.
Instead of taking you thru the opening scenes of a big RPG like Skyrim, it just punts you to some random area so you can immediately start messing around
A lot of games have big scripted events the first couple hours, being able to skip those helps it from feeling repetitive, because that’s the stuff you’ve done ever playthrough you’ve ever started.
Jokes on them, I was wasting my money on xbox’s subscription service at the time and didn’t have to buy it…
it would have to be some serious quality of life changes to make me shell out for it again.
Eh, I first bought it 20 years ago, and have bought it a couple times since on different platforms.
If it’s $30 bucks I’m buying it regardless. Maybe not right at first, but eventually I will.
That’s also why I don’t think any game shouldnt be able to run “maxxed out” on release. A great game people are still gonna want to run it a decade later. It doesn’t hurt anyone if the dial turns to 11 if 10 is the same setting it’s always been.
So make games that in a decade still look decent on settings no one could enable all at once on release. It doesn’t change the quality on release, just gives it legs to look good longer.
Oblivion was alright, but I remember seeing most players topped out at like 5 hours played.
It was fun to see it all again, but the novelty wore off quick…
This tho, I could see sinking 10s likely 100s if hours into.
4 years newer doesn’t sound like much these days, but 2002 to 2006 was a huge jump. NV has a much better starting point for an update, and could feel like a truly modern game that pulls people in without having to drastically change the experience.
Plus the desert setting makes it easy to hide graphical shortcomings. So even after cranking the resolution up, it’s not gonna take a lot more resources, there’s plenty of room to improve other stuff too.
Literally a fucking crime against humanity…
The term “forcible transfer” describes the forced relocation of civilian populations as part of an organized offensive against that population. It is a crime against humanity punishable by the International Criminal Court (ICC). The fifth punishable act of genocide is the forcible transfer of children from one protected group to another. The definition was part of a draft provided by the UN Secretariat that was used as the foundation for the 1948-adopted Genocide Convention.

It’s understandable for someone to be ignorant of that, absolutely inexcusable for someone to actual think it would be a good idea just because no one with a room temp or above IQ told them.
You’re out advocating for genocide as the fucking ethical path forward.
I hope you don’t actually believe what you type.
Prevented it…
Like, the story that they just didn’t see it coming was bullshit, they knew it just like Cheney knew about 9/11, they wanted it to happen to play a victim.
But even months/years/decades earlier…
The attack happened because they’ve been treating Gaza as an open air internment camp for decades.
You can’t just pretend they were neighbors with no issues on 10/6, there was still a genocide going on that had lasted longer than most Palestinians have been alive
What exactly do you mean when you keep saying “physical forces”?
The phrase doesn’t appear once in your link. Or anywhere else in reference to physics…
You 100% made that up, and at this point I don’t really care why
I only care about the 4tb of personal data and I push that to a cloud backup
I have doubles of the data. Some of 'em. That way I know I have a pristine one in backup. Then I can use it, it gets corrupted, I don’t care.
Actually, I have triples of the W2s. I have triples, right? If I don’t, the other stuff’s not true.
See, the W2s the one I have triples of. Oh, no, actually, I also have triples of the kids photos, too. But just those two. And your dad and I are the same age, and I’m rich and I have triples of the W2s and the kids photos.
Triples makes it safe.
Triples is best.
They experience time slower, to them a second just feels longer. It’s like Neo in permanent “bullet time”.
When I was a kid it was pretty easy to catch one alive in my hand. But now my reflexes have slowed and I can only do it from experience and luckily having large hands.
But my big ass hand smacking one out the air and catching it in the same palm is going to hurt it more than going out a window, and weirdly enough I’ve never killed a fly catching it.
They’re a lot sturdier than people think. Any amount of bounce and they’re cool.
